Are we hazing people on entrance? I didn’t get the memo that we’re running a cult over here.
I don’t use Reddit, but getting DMs from people telling me to use other platforms sounds like a great way to get me to not try those platforms.
This thread made me go see what’s up with Discuit, though, so… food for thought about social media dynamics.
Sorry, I’m not a native English speaker, but I don’t think that hazing is the correct term here.
I know were you coming from of course, but I don’t really see the harm telling people who are clearly dissatisfied with reddit about Lemmy.
Lol, they’re certainly not forced to join it.
It’s the right word in context, as in for an initiation ritual.
But still, you get the point. It’s not like we’re on an evangelical mission. There’s a bit of a difference between posting about it and DMing people, it feels… spammy? Your mileage may vary, of course, but I would find it a bit intrusive and kinda creepy, myself.
Nah, I think your choice of words in both cases (hazing and initiation ritual) is pretty hyperbolic and not at all correct, sorry.
But you are of course right, being spammy or obnoxious is obviously counterproductive, I agree!
